Laxgel Effervescent Powder contains Ispaghula Husk (Psyllium), a natural bulk-forming laxative used for the management of constipation and irregular bowel movements. It works by absorbing water in the intestines, forming a soft gel-like mass that increases stool bulk and promotes easier bowel evacuation.

This formulation is gentle, non-habit forming, and suitable for long-term digestive health support.
